An 88-year-old Sturgeon Bay woman suffered minor injuries when she was involved in a two-vehicle accident in Sturgeon Bay on Wednesday morning.  She was traveling northbound on South 15th Avenue, hit by a Sports Utility vehicle traveling on Utah Street and failed to stop for the stop sign at the intersection. 

The 34-year-old woman from Egg Harbor, driving the SUV, admitted to looking down before entering the intersection and not seeing the stop sign.  Her vehicle crashed into the passenger vehicle, sending it off the road and colliding with a tree.

The SUV driver was uninjured, but the other woman had to be transported to the hospital after she sustained minor injuries to her head and the left side of her face.

The Egg Harbor woman was cited for failing to stop at the stop sign, and both vehicles had to be towed from the scene with extensive damage.
